Re: Martha B. Jonas (m. ? & div. ?) ?? Pierce; daug. of Joseph & Charlotte Hill Jonas

drcroley1 — 2009-10-11 17:09:37Z

I believe Joseph & Charlotte Jonas to be my great great grand parents. Their daughter Mary Louisa Jonas married my great grandfather Isaac Croley, a civil war veteran. At that time the Croley and Jonas families lived near Fairland Indiana. Isaac & Mary moved to Naponee, Nebraska in late 1875 where they farmed homestead land. Charlotte relocated there sometime after that and is baried in the Naponee cemetery. I have what remains of May Louisa's photo album containing pictures of several Jonases including a picture I believe to br Charlotte and Joseph. --Don Croley

Re: Collison and Collison Wrench or Flour Mill

kurtrs — 2009-09-10 06:06:19Z

According to my grandather, Rolland Colison, his father Rudy Collison invented the Collison wrench. Rudy owned and operated a flour mill in Bruning, Nebraska. I believe he ran a mill in Ord, Nebraska before this. The patent is under Roland's name. Also, he stated that William Petersen had been friends with Rudy and then went on to invent and patent the vice-grip. I can find more information if you are interested.

I am also updating what I have found so far. My name is Brad Johnson and Elmer Chalupa was my Grandfather. I will send you an invitation to the family tree so you can see who is who and when. Looks like we are long lost relatives on the Chalupa-Johnson Side. My Grandmother was Fransic Chalupa and was previously married to Elwood Duncan which is my mom's maiden name.

We have a big tree to go over and look forward to getting information from you also.
Lillian Edgar was maiden name born abt 1892

Thanks!

suggested library phone number

Neener2007 — 2009-02-13 10:01:55Z

Hello
The Franklin Library in Franklin, Nebraska has copies of old newspapers from Franklin County. However the last I knew they did not have a microfilm copier. That has been some time ago perhaps they have been able to get one. Perhaps you can get the newspapers through an inter library loan. You could inquire by calling this library at 308-425-3162.

Did you ever find an obituary or informaiton on Dorothy Paulson?
I knew Dorothy as she used to work in the grocery store in Bloomington years ago. I am sure that I have a family member who may be able to tell me where she was buried. I seem to remember that she used to visit the Nursing Home in Alma, Nebraska as I had relatives there at the same time she would visit and would sometimes see and have a short visit with her.
Please let me know if your still in need of this informaiton. If so, I should be able to get the information that you are seeking or at least point you to where you can find the informaiton.

Dorothy Paulson (some information) of Bloomington

Neener2007 — 2009-02-13 09:56:27Z

Hi I saw your infro on Rootsweb and I have the informaiton that you are wanting to know. Dorothy's daughter Deb is married to a George Ferguson who resides across the state line from where I grew up near Bloomington, Nebraska. I doubt that Deb would even remember me as I was older than she. I remember her mother Dorothy she was a very nice person and ran the Grocery store for awhile when I was growing up.
Deb's husband George Ferguson's fathers name is also George so I am not sure if the address and phone number that I am providing below is Debs husband or her Father-In-Law. But no matter whomever you get in contact will be able to provide the informaiton to get in contact with Deb.
I tried e-mailing you directly however the e-mail you provided would not allow me to send you this information. I do not usually post this kind of infro but feel there is no harm as I found this information on the internet anyway.

PASSED AWAY

The sad news was received the first of this week, by A. Francisco, notifying him of the death of his mother which occurred at the home of a son at Douglas, Wyo.

Mrs. Benjamin Francisco was at one time a resident of Evansville, and afterwards located at Franklin, Neb., where her husband died and was buried. Since his death she has made her home with her children in Kansas and elsewhere. She was on a visit to Wyoming with a son, where she badly injured a hand, gangrene setting in, it finally ended her life. She leaves six sons and two daughters to mourn her loss.

The remains were taken to Franklin, Neb., and placed beside those of her husband.

Scott and Margaretha (Christofferson) Olsen of Franklin Co, NE

GloriaKayVandiverInman — 2008-07-05 00:04:12Z

I am looking for siblings and parentage of Scott Olsen b.23 Dec 1881 IL (according to his WWI draft registration), and his wife, Margaret/Margaretha Christofferson/Christopherson b. c 1884 Sweden.
In 1910, Scott Olsen, his wife, and daughter are found in Ashe Grove, Franklin Co, NE I have not located either in the 1900 census. In 1918, in his WWI draft Reg. he and Maggie were living in Wilcox, Kearney Co, NE ... in 1920, he and Margaret were back in Ashe Grove, Franklin Co, NE. In 1930, he and Margaret their 5 boys, Leo, Dean, Paul, Robert, and Leroy were in Scandinavia, Franklin Co, NE. I have not yet found out who their eldest, a daughter, named Katherine, married, but have since located all the marriages and some of the families of the boys with the aid of obituaries.

The children seem to have scattered into other counties, namely Kearney, Phelps, Douglas, and Cheyenne Counties in Nebraska. (I've probably missed a few).

Can you help me find the final resting place for Scott and Margaret? and hopefully, an obit or death record? maybe some siblings?

Thanks in advance,
Gloria Kay VAndiver Inman

Chris and Sophia (....) Olsen Denmark and Franklin Co NE

GloriaKayVandiverInman — 2008-06-10 03:03:58Z

I am looking for information on Chris (Christian?) Olsen (b. ca 1845 Denmark) and his wife Sophia (b. ca 1861 Denmark)
They apparently married about 1881, as the 1900 census of Franklin they say they have been md 20 yrs, but in 1910, they say 29 yrs with 5 ch/and 5 living, but only 4 reported in the census records.
I could be wrong, but I suspect that Scott Olsen, (b. 23 Dec 1881 Illinois (per his draft registration)) was their first child and out of the nest in 1900. I cannot find him anywhere in 1900, but in 1910, 1920, and 1930 census records and his 1918 WWI draft registration are all in Franklin Co, NE with his wife, Margaret/Maggie (named in their children's obituaries as Margretha Christofferson/Christopherson).

I have searched and searched, but I cannot find a death record or burial site for either Scott or Margaret "Maggie" Olsen.
I strongly suspect that "Scott" was not his full name.

Does ANYONE have ANYTHING to add to this.

I found a reference to the Bloomington Cemetery, in Bloomington, and if you go to google maps, you will see the cemetery on the west edge of town.
Did not find a reference to transcription of the cemetery but did see on usgenweb-Franklin that Lillie has an obit card in the index.

Looking for Edward and Lillian Chalupa possibly in 1900 census

AngelinaStokes — 2008-01-12 07:26:16Z

Hello i am trying to find any part of my husbands roots. I have recently found an obit that told me his grand mothers last name and the name of her first husband. Lillian (Kocian) married Edward Chalupa and their second Vern S. Chalupa and possibly their first son Elmer Chalupa were born in Hays Springs, Neb.The obit was for Vern S. Chalupa says he was born Oct.26, 1913 . His older brother born who was born Feb. 20 1912 according to the Washington State death index I have not obtained an obit for him yet.I would like to see if can find this family in any census census, and maybe locate birth records for both of the sons. Other children born to this marriage were Melvin F, Helen and Edgar. I know that by 1930 she had remarried an Edgar and had two children Dolores and Kenneth. I only know this because Dolores is my husbands mother, and he remembers a couple of his Chalupa uncles.

Thank you for the proper name of the cemetery. If you have a digital camera, would it be too much to ask to take a photo of the marker if there is one and email it to me? I would greatly appreciate that.

Nina Lilly Fisher (1878 Illinois-bur. 1904 Dillar, Franklin Co.,Nebraska) dau. of Linville Perkins Lilly & Francis Meyers.

aprilkylebladh — 2007-11-12 20:56:47Z

My grandfather, Milton Fisher,married Nina C. Lilly in Falls City, Richardson County, Nebraska on 6 Jan 1896.

They had at least two children. One unknown child probably born in Franklin County, Nebraska and died before their 1900 Osage, Lincoln Co., Oklahoma Census was taken. They also had a male child was born (probably in Nebraska and possibly died in Globe, Gila County, Arizona. I need access to deaths, marriages, cemetery records in both Franklin and Richardson Counties in Nebraska.

I've tried in vain to find any information on these two children. After Nina died my grandfather posed in a photograph with a boy who I think was his and Nina's son as well as another boy????? I also have pictures of Nina and my grandfather together.

I am very anxious to find anything about these children as well as Nina's family. Nina's parents were Linville Perkins Lilly (1847 Illinois-d.aft 1900 probably in Richardson Co., Neb., son of Linville P. Lilly & Sarah Luvicy Monson) and Elizabeth Frances Meyers (1850 Illinois-1894 East Muddy, Richardson County, Nebraska, dau. of David & Nancy White Meyers).

!Only Census Nina & my grandfather are found:
6 June 1900 Osage, Lincoln Co., OK Federal Census: Has grandpa with his 1st wife Nina (age 22 b. IL) and it says they had been married 4 years and had 1 child who was died. (I couldn't find the cemetery record in Osage; therefore, the child probably died before they came to OK).

I am searching for the burial location of Lillie Lavina Cole. She was born February 19th, 1874 and died March 28, 1890. According to the obituary from Columbia City, Inidana, she die in Bloomington, Nebraska and is buried in Bloomington Cemetery. I am unable to find a Bloomington Cemetery in Bloomington, Nebraska on the internet. Could this be an old name of a cemetery? Would someone be so kind as to seek the information and send it me at the following email addres because the one above I am having problems receiving emails on.
Also if there is an obituary available I am searchi for that as well.

Email address is: ej49286@yahoo.com

Thank you in advance.
